CDC: Autism Rates have Risen

... CDC data: 1 in 31 American kids diagnosed by age 8. RFK Jr. called the new numbers an 'unrelenting' trend. Data comes amid massive' research effort into autism causes.

Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. discussed an "unrelenting upward trend" highlighted by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's latest autism rates among American children on Wednesday.

Kennedy called autism spectrum disorder a "preventable disease," and asserted that "we know it's an environmental exposure, it has to be."

The CDC's report found that a record 1 in 31 children are diagnosed with autism by the age of 8 in the United States.

Kennedy pointed to the heightened diagnosis rates as proof of the developmental disability being an "epidemic," of which he has vowed to find the cause by September. ...

he CDC looked at geographic location, race and gender of those diagnosed with autism as of 2022.

Boys continue to be diagnosed more than girls, according to the report, and the highest rates are among Asian American, Pacific Islander, American Indian, Alaska Native and Black children.

The CDC's data from 14 states and Puerto Rico was taken in 2022, which saw the latest increase in diagnoses. Data from 2020 showed that 1 in 36 children had autism, while that number was 1 in 150 in the early aughts.

Health and school records for children aged 4 and 8 across the nation showed that more kids are being diagnosed earlier.

Some health officials and autism advocacy groups have attributed these growing diagnoses to a better understanding of the autism spectrum and broadened screening and criteria.

On Wednesday, Kennedy pushed back against the attribution, labeling it "epidemic denial" to ignore potential environmental exposure links.

"One of the things that I think we need to move away from today is this ideology that the autism prevalence increases, the relentless increases, are simply artifacts of better diagnoses, better recognition or changing diagnostic criteria," Kennedy said. ...

I was talking to a friend of mine who had ND kids. I told her the study I read about relative to diabetes increasing the likelihood. As it turns out, she had gestational diabetes... some women become diabetic while pregnant. People are fatter than ever.

Part of that increase is because girls are now being diagnosed as well. Two decades ago, that was not the case. They thought it was predominantly a male problem. The symptoms are different than those of boys... because male and female brains are inherently wired differently...females were rarely diagnosed.

It is believed by some "experts" that over 60% of those who think themselves transsexual are Autistic. They present compelling arguments in favor of the theory.

Better observation than the parents and all of their visits prior to the onset of autism?

This crowing about delayed discovery, but not caused by our practice is blatant CYA.

I thought the denial over oxycontin addiction was stupid, but sudden autism post-vaccination exceeds all others.

@#5 ... As it turns out, she had gestational diabetes... some women become diabetic while pregnant. People are fatter than ever. ...

Study strengthens link between maternal diabetes and autism
www.reuters.com

... A large new study adds to evidence that diabetes during pregnancy is linked with an increased risk of brain and nervous system problems in children, including autism, researchers say. ...

The risks for children of mothers with diabetes during pregnancy were 25% higher for autism, 30% higher for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and 32% higher for intellectual disability. They were also 20% higher for trouble with communication, 17% higher for movement problems and 16% higher for learning disorders than in children whose mothers did not have diabetes while pregnant. ...

Both can be true, and most likely ARE.

Many times these children are not born with any symptoms.

Medical practitioners deny that.

That we know of. But what you're saying is kind of absurd given the primary way of diagnosing is based on development milestones being missed.

Many times, the "surveilling" performed by parents is denied.

For good reason. The plural of anecdote isn't data.

Medical practitioners whom perform that display no sympathy.

If vaccination rates are down, why is autism rate going up?

"It is believed by some "experts" that over 60% of those who think themselves transsexual are Autistic."

Are gender roles strict commands or are they arbitrary and capricious rules?

In some cultures men greet each other with a kiss on the cheek. Why don't Americans usually do that?

Why shouldn't a person reject these arbitrary and capricious rules, simply because they are arbitrary and capricious and not grounded in any truth?

neurolaunch.com
The literal thinking often associated with autism plays a significant role in how authority is perceived and understood. Understanding Autism: The 3 Main Characteristics and Their Impact highlights how this characteristic can affect social interactions. For instance, an autistic individual might interpret a casual suggestion from an authority figure as a strict command, or conversely, may not recognize the weight of an important directive if it's not explicitly stated as such.

RFK Jr. disputes CDC conclusion on why autism rates have jumped in US
www.scrippsnews.com

... Experts attribute the increase in autism diagnoses to broader definitions and improved detection methods, alongside potential genetic and environmental factors. ...

Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. on Wednesday addressed a new Centers for Disease Control and Prevention report that found that 1 in 31 children born in 2014 were diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder.

"There are many many other studies that have affirmed this, and instead of listening to this canard of epidemic denial, all you have to do is start reading a little science because the answer is very clear, and this is catastrophic for our country," Kennedy said at a press conference.

A previous CDC report indicated that among children born in 2012, 1 out of 36 had been identified with autism spectrum disorder by the time they turned 8 years old. Among children born in 1992, that proportion was 1 in 150, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

No one knows why autism rates have spiked in the past 25 years, but scientists think much of it is due to a broader definition of the disorder and better detection. They also say genetics and exposure to chemicals may play a role.

"We're seeing the rates of autism go up because we're doing a better job of understanding what autism is," Dr. Jessica McCarthy, a licensed clinical psychologist, told Scripps News. "We're doing better job of assessing it and diagnosing it in greater areas around the country, both in terms of targeted areas of the country and also in populations that we know are chronically underserved in healthcare."

The CDC's report notes concern about the variability of autism detection rates. Officials believe there needs to be more uniformity in identifying autism spectrum disorder in order to provide proper treatment.

"Increased identification of autism, particularly among very young children and previously underidentified groups, underscores the increased demand and ongoing need for enhanced planning to provide equitable diagnostic, treatment, and support services for all children with ASD," the CDC's report says. "The substantial variability in ASD identification across sites suggests opportunities to identify and implement successful strategies and practices in communities to ensure all children with ASD reach their potential." ...

Before a problem can be resolved, it needs to be clearly defined.

All of a sudden one in 31 kids is retarded, up from 1 in 34 in 2020, following a curve.

So what is the reason for that increase?

Better understanding and detection of autism?

I doubt if it is vaccines because vaccine usage is down, while autism is rising.

Are environmentalists the latest conspiracy theory, now that the vaccine conspiracy theory has been disproved?

Ignore Hrat at your peril. The FDA has approved plenty of chemicals that may work, and researchers don't know why. Then there are off label usages.

We are flailing in an ocean of ignorance that the best science can only chip away at.

"Ignore Hrat at your peril."

The industrialization of the food supply is harmful to humans and the environment in ways we haven't even begun to imagine.

Ecology as a science really only came into its own in the 50s and 60s.

It was immediately politicized since any fool can recognize why measuring and quantifying the damage of human activity is an existential threat to the status quo.

Why?

You didn't know that aspartame is bad for you?

Do you live under a rock?

Nevermind that. Have you never had a Diet Coke? Wow what a life I wish I never had a Diet Coke.

Just from eating aspartame, don't you at least suspect it might be bad for you? Does it not taste hideously awful? How would anything natural be that sweet? And then somehow it has zero calories, so the only reason it tastes sweet is because it mimics naturally occurring chemicals to elicit the same physiological response.

So it tricks your tongue into thinking it's really sweet.

What other biological systems does it trick?

Now, let me ask you again:

You're still going to eat this?

Anyway, aspartame is not something you should eat.

What due process?

PLEASE read the fifth amendment and Scalia's interpretation of it.

www.pbs.org

Right to due process
What the law says: The Fifth Amendment states that "no person ... shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law."

The issue of due process is at the heart of many immigration cases, including Reno v. Flores, the 1993 Supreme Court case that has returned to the spotlight with the surge in family separations. The case led to an agreement requiring the government to release children to their parents, a relative or a licensed program within 20 days.

In the ruling, Justice Antonin Scalia wrote "it is well established that the Fifth Amendment entitles aliens to due process of law in deportation proceedings."

Regressive Autism (2021)
goldencaretherapy.com

... The Difference Between Autism That Develops and Regressive Autism

Autism That Develops (Early-Onset Autism)

Autism that develops, also known as early-onset autism, refers to cases where symptoms are present from an early age, often before the child turns three years old. Children with early-onset autism exhibit developmental delays and differences in social, communication, and behavioral skills compared to their typically developing peers.

Regressive Autism (Late-Onset Autism)

Regressive autism, also known as late-onset autism, involves a period of typical development followed by a loss of previously acquired skills or a noticeable decline in social and communication abilities. This regression usually occurs between 15 and 30 months of age and can be sudden or gradual. ...

Oh yeah, I heard if you break and enter you can still apply for asylum, but that was under Biden, right? They give you a NTO (notice to Appear) for a court date up to six years away amd you can apply for a SSN in the mail. Trump just ended that. A scan of 5 million of those SSN's showed 1.15 million on medicaid and more on welfare. That was news from DOGE on X.

Googles states "Babies typically receive vaccinations at birth, and then at 2, 4, 6, 12, 15, and 18 months of age. These vaccinations help protect them from various serious diseases as they grow."

You are conflating other vaccinations with the series that is part of the allegation.

Is there evidence of children developing late autism whom haven't been vaccinated with that series?

A scan of 5 million of those SSN's showed 1.15 million on medicaid"

Sure, let's run with that.
"in fiscal year 2022, Medicaid spent $8,813 per full-year equivalent enrollee for all enrollees."
So that's ten billion dollars.
So that's about sixty bucks per taxpayer.

Sixty bucks and you think you're making it rain.

A propaganda poster reading "Madrid ' The 'military' practice of the rebels" at the top, and "If you tolerate this your children will be next" at the bottom; in the middle, a photomontage of a dead young child under a formation of bomber aircraft

The song's theme is inspired by the Spanish Civil War, and the idealism of Welsh volunteers who joined the left-wing International Brigades fighting for the Spanish Republic against Francisco Franco's military rebels. The song takes its name from a Republican propaganda poster of the time written in English and displaying a photograph of a child killed by the Nationalists, under a sky filled with bomber aircraft, with the song's titular warning written at the bottom.[3] ...

RFK Jr. lays out new studies on autism, shuts down 'better diagnoses' as a cause
abcnews.go.com

... On the heels of a new report showing that rates of autism diagnoses have again increased, Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said he was determined to find the "environmental exposures" behind the rise and directed the National Institute of Health to launch new studies into "everything" -- from mold to obesity -- that could potentially be a factor.

Kennedy, who prioritizes autism as one of the chronic illnesses he's determined to tackle in his aim to "Make America Healthy Again," ardently pushed back against the explanation that a broadening definition of autism spectrum disorder is a meaningful contributor to more autism diagnoses. ...

Yeah, I tried posting this but non-fake news isn't allowed here: www.breitbart.com

"The epidemic is real," Kennedy said, noting there are plenty of other studies that affirm this notion.

"Instead of listening to this canard of epidemic denial, all you have to do is start reading a little science, because the answer is very clear, and this is catastrophic for our country," Kennedy continued, citing another recent study that found the cost of treating autism in the U.S. by 2035 will be one trillion dollars per year.

And tell me again about "Proximal Origins" and how the WuFlu came from a pangolin ------- a bat. 'Cause that was funny. And masking, and social distancing, and lock-downs, and the vaccine being safe and effective. And ivermectin.

Because you where an expert on all of that. Degree'd even.

I could spend post after post after post explaining it to you and you'd still be like "duuuhhhhhhhhhh NuH UhHHz!!/"

Because you already have.

In any case, the proof of your disingenuous, intellectually vacant position is readily available in the bold section of your post. That's never been a position expressed in a literal sense and in a broad sense it was an initial hypothesis floated early based on SARS-CoV-1 findings.

Like everything else, you went into that situation looking to prop your ego as an "independent thinker" by taking he contrarian side without any real knowledge or critical analysis of the topic.

Everything after is pure bulls(*& meant to prop that original pompous, arrogant assumption.

Heh. So that's what happened to Brucebanner - he took your medical advice and now he's dead!

ROFLMAO!

Hey, C0RI0LANUS, your song and the others put my youtube on a weird musical bent, and now it's playing a song about telepathy. www.youtube.com

#84: Yes, but an entertaining story is an entertaining story.

Would you believe a civilian walked around town with a live hand grenade before being caught? globalnews.ca

Or a man traveled with 8kg of mercury in his luggage? www.gdnonline.com

Heh. So that's what happened to Brucebanner - he took your medical advice and now he's dead!

He got a vacation because SSentinal whined.

He ditched this s*&^hole and never came back.

"An aircraft passenger has landed a five-year spell behind bars after carrying a potentially dangerous chemical on board a planned flight from Bahrain to Kuwait. The 62-year-old Pakistani hid 8kg of mercury in his luggage on a Gulf Air flight on May 25, the High Criminal Court heard "

So that's what happened to ------. I miss our old resident Pakistani. How many times did he get banned and come back?

I mean, you're a drummer, right? I only knew one recently, black kid that hanged out with my friend James. Everybody calls James "Rocker". He has three Harley's and his own sound room. He sells custom guitars, and the gets the best weed on the planet. Knows everyone. His kid was one of the ones I was talking about that has autism. It's a horrible thing to see - he'll be a kid forever unless we can cure it.

I wish I had musical talent so I could hang out more with people that do.

#93. Helium Rat, I was a drummer last century. I played four instruments way back then. Everybody has music in them, we just have to tap into into it. Some lucky people are born with perfect pitch (I know three), but this could also be taught with practice. I'm sorry your friend's kid has autism, my friend has a son similarly afflicted. And the autistic boy has a normal sister whom we feel awful for her because she is deprived of a normal sibling relationship forever. Unfortunately there is no cure for autism.

Hey, clear out your YouTube algorithm with this. We saw this band live and and we covered this song: youtu.be

Yeah! I never heard of Zebra, I'll let 'em play for awhile. That was a hot leotard. Thanx.

Excellent thread, Gacy.

Autism is caused by liberal inbreeding. Based on the number of liberal ------- on this site 90% of you have little -------.

And your other 10% are ----.

Zebra

Man, been awhile since I've heard them. Used to call them Almost Zep.

Diabetes and toxic environment of the mother are the causes of autism. Nature is trying to off us. We're a virus with shoes.

@#50 ... To my knowledge they all have been, and all studies are regarding children with autism who have been vaccinated. ...
So, "to your knowledge" you admit that your knowledge takes into account only a subset.
thx.
That's a major reason why I ask so frequently here for substantiation.
Sometimes the comment I reply to are lacking in information, and I need more information to form my opinion.
And, I do thank the redlightrobot alias for admitting that it really has not a clue on this topic.

If that is what you perceive, I guess I can't make you.. drink?:]

Rather, what I am substantiating is the professional arena being utterly certain that vaccines play no part in autism occurring.

That is in opposition to what thousands of parents have experienced and described to said "professionals".

I can presume that ALL of these children have been vaccinated with the standard MMR series because it is routine. Perhaps Canada is different, but it's legally required inside most of the United States. FYI.

I believe the parents when they explain the autism began directly after immunization.

Children developing verbal skills stop entirely. They appear to "retreat". Using THIS PDF as a reference there are NO alternatives considered, only the mainstream medical opinion.

I am having difficulties locating any data from any government source on the number of children not vaccinated with MMR series, as it is considered "routine".

Perhaps you know differently, and if you want to continue this conversation without insinuation and derision, than I'm all for "it".

Jethro Dull here always adds so much to the conversation.

"To my knowledge they all have been, and all studies are regarding children with autism who have been vaccinated."
Incorrect.
pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov
That's one example. If you're genuinely interested in the topic, dig into this before you keep expressing strong opinions.
"Not just concomitant use studies."
"With the knowledge that many if not all mothers exhibit diabetic or pre-diabetic disorder may only strengthen this argument and enlighten dismissive academics."

LOL so the vague, evidence free combo hypothesis. How does the maternal diabetes data support this?
#69 | Posted by jpw at 2025-04-17 02:30 AM

You people tend to harsh on the messenger. I'm generally here to explore you, not just to criticize.:]

The data you present is Denmark decades ago. Is there anything current regarding the United States? I am digging, but you obviously have more skill at it.

I used the language from the government document I posted above, parsed as best as I could and presented the (weak?) counter argument.

The time-line is matching the ages and vaccinations.

The parents appear to observe identical experiences.

The professionals deny any correlation, but with a new piece of information that would INVALIDATE all of that prior denial.

Should the diabetic link be proven valid, all prior studies and professionals should really "dig into this before you keep expressing strong opinions."

@#58 ... You aren't a RL superhero ...
Yeah, that's a great opening theme for that Star Trek series (the first Star Trek theme with sung lyrics, btw), and I have posted that tune before.
But, I'm not sure what you mean by "RL superhero."
Can you explain?
thx.

The alias is inquiring as to our personal relationship.

The original performed live

The unsung lyrics:

Beyond
The rim of the star-light
My love
Is wand'ring in star-flight
I know
He'll find in star-clustered reaches
Love,
Strange love a star woman teaches.
I know
His journey ends never
His star trek
Will go on forever.
But tell him
While he wanders his starry sea
Remember, remember me.

(* Without Courage's knowledge, Roddenberry wrote lyrics to the theme, not in the expectation that they would ever be sung, but in order to claim a 50% share of the music's performance royalties. Although there was never any litigation, Courage later commented that he considered Roddenberry's conduct unethical. Roddenberry was quoted as responding, "Hey, I have to get some money somewhere. I'm sure not gonna get it out of the profits of Star Trek.")
